[PATCH] drm/amdgpu: fix fence slab teardown

To free fences, call_rcu() is used, which calls amdgpu_fence_free()
after a grace period. During teardown, there is no guarantee all
callbacks have finished, so amdgpu_fence_slab may be destroyed before
all fences have been freed. If we are lucky, this results in some slab
warnings, if not, we get a crash in one of rcu threads because callback
is called after amdgpu has already been unloaded.

Fix it with a rcu_barrier().
